Abstract
Purpose – The primary purpose of this paper was to identify the antecedent of Perceptions of organizational Justice and performance outcomes of empowering leadership in sports for development organizations. The study also examined the mediating role of empowering leadership between Perceptions of organizational justice and performance outcomes.
Design/Methodology/Approach – The research assumed a cross-sectional research design. Data was collected from a total population of 2993 youth/members drawn from three sports development organizations in Kenya. The authors conducted a series of confirmatory factor analyses (CFAs) to verify the validity of the constructs and adopted IBM SPSS AMOS Version 23 to test the hypotheses.
Findings - The authors found that perceptions of organizational justice is an important antecedent of empowering leadership and empowering leadership plays a significant mediating role between perceptions of organizational justice and performance outcomes.
Conclusion / Recommendation - This study concluded that organizational justice has a positive and significant influence on performance outcomes among youth in sports for development organizations in Kenya. Empowering leadership mediates between organizational justice and performance outcomes in sports for development organizations in Kenya. The study recommended that that leaders of the youth beneficiaries in the sports for development organization should ensure that they have systems and policies in place that entrench organization justice in order to achieve performance outcomes.
